communism and socialism

i guess "fuck you rich college faggots Kill hippies!!!" is some paranoid middle class person (no, i will not resort to pointless swearing) who contradicts themself at every possible opportunity. firstly, you cannot properly define socialism because it can take so many other forms. secondly, communism has never been achieved. humans are not set up to create a communist government because we are selfish, among other things. i could go on, as the crap that you wrote is wrong but i won't go into details or i would end up writing a novel.
the guy im talking about says "fuck you rich college faggots" yet he is probaly republican/right-wing and probably supports bush who only got through college because he is rich. communism and socialism.

"During the cold war there was a massive amount of propoganda against socialism spread by conservatives who didn't want to lose their control over business and government."
Nope.
During the cold war there was a massive amount of propoganda against socialism spread by conservatives who didn't want to see their country turned into a home for gulags and starvation caused by inefficient government.

communism and socialism

Two quite different processes with the core idea that the government should help organize society to make day to day life easier on common people and to create a more equal society. Socialism says capitalism is a necessary evil so any governmental influence must be built around somewhat free capitalism. Communism says that capitalism is an unnecessary evil that corrupts society, so it totally replaces capitalism with a working class utopia of sharing and caring that invariably turns into a totalitarian regime that terrorizes its citizens into working whenever things go wrong.

Currently, most of the really smart communists are staying quiet and moving to the field of robotics in the hope that once society is sufficiently automated they can implement universal basic income and declare pyrrhic victory.
Communism and socialism are never used in just one sentence - people always have to go on and on about them.

National Socialism

National Socialism (Nazism) is a political belief created by Friedrich Naumann. It aims to unite Socialist ideas with nationalism (specifically German nationalism). National Socialism is a centrist idea which leans slightly right due to it's ultra-nationalist elements.

There are elements of Socialism within Nazism but in many cases welfare money was only given to those of native descent. The belief of the people being a master race is also a right wing idea and in the case of Nazi Germany the Aryan race is the master race. Nationalism is strong in Nazi regimes. The love of one's country and the belief that it should be strong is also a typically right wing idea (Note that Patriots and Nationalist are very different people and should NOT be confused).

National Socialism does not believe in class division. They despise the idea of Poor vs Rich (Communism) and Rich vs Poor (Capitalism). Many National Socialists believe that all class division should be abandoned and all people should unite behind the master race to make the Country better.
"National Socialism is Socialist". "No it's actually Nationalist with a few socialist ideas"
"Republicans are National Socialists" "No republicans are Patriotic, National Socialists are Nationalist"

Socalist

Term describing people originating from Southern California. If you have a friend originating from that region, and he's sometimes claiming to be special and different to other californians and even the rest of the US and A, than you can call him a "socalist". That makes the whole thing about being special ironically sound like a movement, and plus, if you throw in some swearwords (eg. "evil socalist") - it has the side effect of sounding like evil socialist - a term widely known in the whole anti-socialism propaganda of the right wing politicians.
A: Steve is living in europe now for a hole year. Actually he's from Southern California, he misses his family badly.

B. Well he's such an evil socalist - no surprise they kicked him out of California.
